I was just wondering if anyone is rated higher than, let's say 1750 in normal chess is rated HIGHER in chess 960... I believe it would show true chess skill.

Yes I think you would have to be very positionally minded for your skill level for that to occur.

The two rating pools are different.  Different players and a much lower number of games,  the only way your 960 rating could be higher is if you timed out in a whole bunch of standard chess games.
